The Charging Chasseur, 1812.Gericault soon left the classroom, choosing to study at the Louvre instead, where he copied from paintings by Peter Paul Rubens, Titian, Diego Vel??zquez, and Rembrandt for about six years, from 1810 to 1815. There he found a vitality which he preferred to the prevailing school of Neoclassicism.  Related Paintings of Theodore Gericault :. | Wounded Cuirassier | The race of the wild horses | An Officer of the Imperial Horse Guards Charging (mk05) | Madwoman 5 | cheval gris pommele |
